>315 is a "remove vital and current information, as well as change
>wording and presentation unnecessarily".
>
>As well, revision # 316 removed (same editor as 315) non-EOL
>testimonials (ex. 8.04 server is still supported). While one could
>make the argument that the page was too long including them,
>ultimately, the information may have value for those using 8.04
>server.

>I would have done this myself but I do not have the permissions. As

>and trying to piecemeal unconvert would be time consuming and wasteful
>instead of just a complete revert.

>Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter and I look
>forward to the page being immediately reverted to # 314.
